Pretty tearful listening to that remembering many long phone conversations with many of the key players

Doug talks so well and is such a great leader and decision maker
Gives out praise to all those around him and identifies the skills needed that he doesn’t have
Totally won me over

Fearful of the lack of a board and how much is down to one person but interested how he’ll sort rather than scared he won’t

Hey guys, this show was on last night at 6PM. Managed to clip it and can share it without having to use the BBC Sounds stuff.

Here it is.

Why wouldn’t you just use BBC Sounds?

Key things
1 Doug admits Robins and Boddy saved the club and he would not have bought in if we weren’t at that level
2 He said we would give it a go in the premier league but he would need help ( investment ) as he couldn’t do it alone
3 said he is warming the council up on infrastructure due to the massive benefits it would bring to the city

Do we own the CBS lock stock and barrel or have CCC still got the FREEHOLD?

It’s a 239 year lease or something. Was 250 when Wasps extended in 2014 not sure if it’s been extended again. In reality the only difference would be if we tried to knock it down and build some houses or whatever they’d probably be able to stop us under the terms of the lease. Otherwise it’s effectively ours, it’s not like we have to ask if we want to build or whatever.
